Somehow a miraculous light for us... - *random* I'm in love with this icon. And litterature.

*random* I'm in love with this icon. And litterature.

Tomorrow I'm going to order at least three Murakami-books (my friend Anna really recommends them and I need to learn more English grammatic and litterature) but I can't decide on which one. Eiter Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, Kafka on the shore, Dance dance dance, Norwegian Wood, Sputnik sweetheart or What I talk about when I talk about running. Or maybe just all of them and I'll pay like 600SEK (~90USD). D'oh.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

I need to learn better English. Or at least some more "poetic" English.
Perhaps I'll write fics in Swedish so start with and then translate them to English as good as I can? Because it's at times like this you notice you're not fluent in a language, or has it as first language.

BANG A DRUMMER OR LET THE DRUMMER BANG ON YOU.

Hell yeah. We like it, and don't try to deny it.

(I'm a sucker for "live"-icons, which are icons from concerts etc. Prs to do me with one of them.)

If the world was going to fall down, I want to know that you would be the last person on my mind. If I ever left your mind, my world is surely going to fall down.

If the world was going to fall down, I want to know that you would be the last person on my mind. If I ever left your mind, my world is surely going to fall down.

Today was slightly awesome. Goodnight, I'd like to talk to all of you FOR REAL tomorrow because there's something extra in every person I want to know. And if you're not up for it, then I'll defriend you. Because you can "watch" me or sth, IDK, but to friend me I'd like to know you more as a person than "oh she's the KAT-TUN fangirl" or "ah, the wannabe-elitist".
See you tomorow. Bye ♥

Well I'll definitely recommend Norwegian Wood (Heck I'd recommend it to anyone lol), Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman (These are a collection of Murakami's short stories and I do think his shorter works are his better works. XD), I've heard good things about Sputnik Sweetheart but never had the chance to read it /yet/ so I'm not sure whether Kafka or Sputnik is the way to go. Kafka is not my fave book of his but there's a lot of memorable characters you might like. And it's very surreal. :D

Oh, okay, but I love all this surreal stuff so I think I'll like Kafka XD; My teacher thinks I'm insane. :D

'69' is interesting, as well :P

wait, you're referring to Haruki Murakami...... but listed Dance Dance Dance so I thought it's Ryu Murakami :Dv

Oh, yeah, I'm thinking of buying it and "Piercing" too :3
Hahaha, yes I am, sorry XD But Ryu Murakami seems like a good author too, and "Piercing" sounds interesting! Thank you :D

uchikins on August 30th, 2008 06:24 pm (UTC)

A sort-of bitch in a fandom who's looked upon because of her skills in writing/drawing or her knowledge in that certain fandom, and that she's acting like a bullier.

I've never read any of those books, so I can't recommend any of them to you ;-; *fails*

I'm probably going to head out to the library tomorrow to see if they have any because I feel very literaturely deprived lately ;~;

uchikins on August 30th, 2008 04:22 pm (UTC)

Ah, okay, but thank you anyway for thinking about me XD; Any other books to recommend though? :3

Do it ♥ Support your local library, get a book! :D

Anything Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett writes :x
Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire was good and so was The Princess Bride by William Goldman.

I ♥ books :D

uchikins on August 30th, 2008 05:17 pm (UTC)

What kind of books are they? :o

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread) (Link)

starry_kun on August 30th, 2008 05:27 pm (UTC)

Pratchett writes comedic fantasy books, his most well known series is the Discworld series. Gaiman writes both science fiction and fantasy. My favorite of his is Neverwhere ♥♥

Uh. Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister is the story of Cinderella, but told in the perspective of the ugly stepsister. And The Princess Bride is like the movie only funnier and better ;-; (assuming you saw the movie :x)

Lol everybody is recommending something different, and I will not make things any easier for you by recommending Dance, dance, dance! It's probably my favourite book from him. XD

Or if you like short stories, The Elephant Vanishes is pretty good as well!
